I'am currently playing 1501 retail version without mods or patches... Running smoothly as long as I follow storyline... So after saving at Limansk-entrance and than going back to get my armour repaired, sell some artifacts etc. I find Cordon empty... I go to Swamps, everybody's gone... I start thinking they are hiding out somewhere cause I outran an emission few minutes ago thus changing levels... Suddenly I see stalkers popping up on my map in Cordon again, so I go there to find stalkers sitting around somewhat different as usual, lined up and crouching,looking kinda sad actually, and all important characters gone... Same happens at Agroprom and Yantar... Buggy-bussines... So what's happening...?! - Shouldn't have left the storyline and go back that far... - Shouldn't have done the medkit/smugglersquest for Wild Napir at that point in the game... Conversation went wrong when I had to tell him I'd allready done the job he needed weapons for... - Shouldn't have changed levels during emission... It's like the game thinks I should be hiding somewhere in previous level... - Shouldn't have changed from Stalkers to Duty... Since I've just cleaned out the garbage they should both be happy instead of not knowing what to do anymore... - I left to many sidequests open for a long time only filling them in when I happened to be in the erea... Maybe factionwar needs all these calls for help answered to enroll... Anyone any ideas...!?
its very compucated when you reach the garbage ...lotta times thiers too many yellow objectives at once and by the time you get thier task is canceled ?? or you reach the yellow area to secure and nothing happens ? i though the new patch would fix these issues ? very annoying when your told to reach the red obective in the dark valley to meet the commander of freedom they open fire on you when you get thier WTF? generally all the freedom are guarding the dark valley entrances they fire on you even if came from the freedom base and want to go to the garbage??? wtf?

You'll have to 'freeze' as they tell you to and than wait for them to walk up to you... Its Explained in another thread posted some two weeks ago... You're not wearing Duty-armor are you...?!
i had some of those same issues... had to restart the game... it didn't resolve itself. Quicksaving/loading when people dissapear brings them back temporarily... not worth the trouble though...
You say you're using 1.5.01 version and you made it so far ? Strange... I wonder HOW did you travel between areas WITHOUT the "YES/NO" options...(that is fixed ONLY in 1.5.05 version).I assumed you didn't use guides , paying them to take you from here to there...:)
The important npc's (blue) should automatically return after a blowout: I hate how CS calls it an emission. This has happened to me loads of times and best advice i can give is just ride out blowouts in shelters its better to wait a minute rather than spend time loading/reloading the save. But its a major bug that every patch exhibits. I dunno GSC must be blind or idiots....
Yes/no to change ereas work fine... The question should be; 'how did you make it so far without any ammo in crates,so many quests not completed and traders vanished...' :D
This is why you don't use quicksaves or mess around with your .LTX at the same times.
